Marvel fans just can’t get enough of the God of Mischief. <\/p>

Well, there we have it \u2013 another season of Loki has now been and gone on Disney Plus<\/a>, taking viewers on a wild journey through the multiverse with Tom Hiddleston\u2019s beloved God of Mischief.<\/p>\n

The series is one of only two Marvel Studios shows on Disney Plus<\/a> to secure a second season thus far (the other being animated series What If\u2026?<\/a>), which is a testament to its early success.<\/p>\n

However, could it become the first to secure a third season? That prospect currently seems to be up in the air, as the show\u2019s head writer Eric Martin has suggested the series was always planned as a story of two halves.<\/p>\n

Martin told CinemaBlend<\/a>: \u201cWe approached this as like two halves of a book. Season one, first half. Season two, we close the book on Loki and the TVA. Where it goes beyond that, I don\u2019t know. I just wanted to tell a full and complete story across those two seasons.\u201d<\/p>\n

There is, of course, still enough leeway in Martin\u2019s answer to suggest a third season could be produced \u2013 but will it be, and when would it arrive?<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve gathered everything we know so far about the future of Marvel\u2019s Loki \u2013 read on for details.<\/p>

Will there be a Loki season 3?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Disney Plus is yet to announce whether Loki will return for season 3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The second season was memorably announced in a post-credits sting at the end of the first finale, which was a show of confidence in what proved to be one of the biggest hits of summer 2021.<\/p>\n

That the streamer opted not to do the same this time around is perhaps evidence of uncertainty at Marvel, with Variety<\/a> recently claiming that executives are concerned by the franchise\u2019s fading fortunes.<\/p>\n

However, producer Kevin Wright gave RadioTimes.com<\/a> an alternate view.<\/p>\n

\u201cSeason 1 ended with such a cliffhanger that [for] season 2, we didn\u2019t want to do that again,\u201d he told us in October.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are two chapters of the same book, we wanted the end of that book to be really fulfilling \u2013 and now there\u2019s other books on the shelf we can tell stories from.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn all of our streaming going forward, the idea going forward is that all of these should be continuing series, but I would say with this series you have to watch and see!<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s teeing up a lot, and there\u2019s a lot of other books we can pull from that shelf and tell stories from.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wright went on to say that, while season 3 wasn\u2019t in the writers\u2019 minds during development, that isn\u2019t to say it isn\u2019t possible.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cWe certainly did not develop this season going, \u2018We have to tee up season 3,\u2019 in the way that we did with season 1, where there was a very specific, \u2018Hey, we\u2019re coming back.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I also think that where this show goes, there certainly can be many, many, many more stories told with Loki in the \u2018Loki\u2019 world, and in other worlds connected to Loki, the character.\u201d<\/p>\n

When could a potential Loki season 3 be released?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The second season of Loki took more than two years to get to our screens, so we could be in for another long wait if the show does get renewed again.<\/p>\n

For that reason, if Loki does continue, we wouldn\u2019t expect season 3 until late 2025 <\/strong>at the earliest.<\/p>\n

Who could be in a potential Loki season 3 cast?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Sophia\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>

If Loki were to come back for a third season, Tom Hiddleston would surely have to return to the title role that made him a household name.<\/p>\n

Supporting cast members are less certain, but we wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see more from Sophia Di Martino\u2019s Sylvie, Owen Wilson\u2019s Agent Mobius, Gugu Mbatha-Raw\u2019s Renslayer and Wunmi Mosaku\u2019s Hunter B-15.<\/p>\n
